Celtic vs Rangers: Scottish Cup final final prediction, kick-off time, team news, TV, live stream, h2h, odds

Celtic will today look to secure a domestic double with victory over Old Firm derby rivals Rangers in the Scottish Cup final.

Brendan Rodgers' side lifted the Scottish Premiership title, their 54th, after a 3-2 win over St Mirren on Saturday, courtesy of goals from Matt O’Riley, Kyogo Furuhashi, and Luis Palma, and will look to add to their silverware collection at Hampden Park.

The Glasgow rivals faced off just two weeks ago, with Celtic coming out 2-1 winners in a chaotic derby.
